Earlier this month, we partnered with the Milton Hershey School to offer an all-expenses paid baseball/softball camp to nearly 50 #Maryland youth from Anderson Monarchs, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metropolitan Baltimore , Boys & Girls Club of Frederick County, and James Mosher Baseball League. This was more than a camp, it served as an opportunity to bring together positive adult mentors and youth to play and learn together. What is your favorite thing about your #mentor or #coach? Check out the video below to see what our campers love about their mentors and coaches. #youthdevelopment | #youthsports | #lifelessons
